Dr. Campbell will discuss an overview of physical rehabilitation in a specialty setting.

Furthermore, the talk will elaborate on what rehab practices/modalities can be utilized in general practice.

2. What you can do in your practice – diet plans, basic therapeutic exercise, supplements, modalities such as ice and heat, at-home recommendations/lifestyle changes.
